NEED TO KNOW | AREA INSIGHT

TRANSPORT
Guildford is located within easy commuting distance of London but sits next to the rolling countryside so many City workers crave at the weekend. Guildford mainline station offers a frequent train service to London Waterloo taking approximately 35 minutes. A season ticket will cost £890 for three months or just over £3,000 for a full year. In addition, the A3 is within easy reach, which in turn connects to the M25 at Wisley, providing access to Heathrow and Gatwick airports.

LOCAL AREA
Guildford offers an enormous range of amenities as well as cultural and commercial attractions. There are many big-name retail outlets with shops on the High Street and North Street. Guildford is particularly well served by good schools, including Tormead, Guildford High School, Lanesborough and The Royal Grammar as well as nearby George Abbot school and St Catherine’s in Bramley. Among the recreational amenities in the area are several golf courses including Guildford and Woking.
